F13 error

[Markh]

Hi. I have an indesit iwdd7143 washer dryer. When drying i get an f13 code lights flashing and machine stops, i have put a new thermostat in and the fan is spinning, clothes in the drum are hot so element heating up. Anybody got any ideas?

Several Indesit washer dryers use F13 error code to indicate a fault on the NTC dryer section. I have an article on these parts here NTC thermistors. However, some of the F13 error code explanations are less also implicate a possible fan motor fault.

If the clothes are getting hot and the dryer gives the error code after it has been on for a while it tends to imply that it is overheating. But if the fan is running okay and the NTC is not faulty that really just leaves a potential blockage stopping the fan from circulating air or possibly even a lack of cold water to condense the hot steam.
